How Often Should Your Transmission be Serviced?

For starters, if you work your German made or domestic vehicle hard it can cause your transmission to run hot a lot more often than you might think.  This repeated heat can cause transmission fluid to break down faster. The German Car Shoppe of Littleton is here to make sure that you are not left on the road with a bad transmission.

Here is a thumbnail to work from…after you have that the first transmission fluid change at around 60,000 miles, it is recommended that you regularly continue this maintenance service every 2 to 3 years or 25 thousand to30 thousand miles. Use those numbers as a benchmark.
